we did the math
our plastic use
Compared to sports drinks, or bottled water, we use 97% less plastic. Let's be clear though, we still use plastic in both our stick pack and our pouches. We're actively searching for ways that we can reduce this further with new materials.
Currently the materials available don't protect our product as well as our existing plastic film, but we're actively working on this!
carbon emissions
Holding that same comparison to a sports drink or bottled water, drinking a Hydrant with a reusable water bottle uses 97% less CO2. This is largely because we're not shipping water around the country - why bother when you have it in your tap at home already?

FAQ SECTION
Frequently asked
Is your packaging compostable?
As an organization, we are actively exploring packaging that is more environmentally friendly. Currently, our mailing envelopes are compostable and we’re exploring compostable pouches. As we explore these options, we are making sure the alternatives protect the integrity of the electrolyte mix.
Do you have purchasing options that don’t involve single use plastic?
We do! We heard overwhelming support from our customers for a recyclable tub format. We understand the importance of reducing the amount of waste each day. So we developed our limited edition tub sizes, check them out here.
What material are the tubs made of?
The lids on our tubs are made of 100% recyclable Polypropylene (#5). The tubs themselves are either 100% recyclable PET (#1) or HDPE (#2). The specific material will depend on the product you purchase but is clearly marked on the bottom of the container! All of these materials are widely accepted at recycling facilities, so you can feel confident that your items will be used again in a different form.
